Conservative Websites Are on the Fashion Beat They Say Mainstream Media Ignores

Conservative websites like the Daily Caller, Breitbart, and smaller blogs have started to fill what some see as a hole in the market: content about what conservative women are wearing, minus the politics.

“Conservative women in general have a larger hill to climb when it comes to getting coverage, and fashion is no exception,” Daily Caller reporter Katie Jerkovich told Racked via email. “Michelle Obama consistently appeared on the cover of fashion and news magazines during Barack Obama’s presidency, while the current first lady has received much less coverage. Those kinds of inconsistencies are hard to ignore. Why has Melania not had the same kind of treatment? That’s why we are here. We cover the stories other news outlets either don’t want to do or simply refuse to for a variety of reasons. Because there is an audience out there that wants to read about it.”
